Rethink, Remake On My Old Art
Lately, I had been reading many posts on artists being discourage due to lack of sale. Here is my latest entry on my blog:
Rethink, remake on my old art
I had been making art since I was a young boy and kept almost everything I had created. Although I had sold a lot of them but I own plenty more I make art daily, almost as soon as I finished one I would put it away and go right into the next. I treat every piece as a learning lesson to improve my skills and to develop my concept.
Some of my works sold almost as soon as I completed without any effort but some took months or even years. Unlike other artists I don’t get discourage if the work doesn’t sell because I been doing this long enough to know one doesn’t lives or dies with just one work, my enjoyment came from doing them and the discovery of what I could do with it.
I have stacks of prints from my art schools days; few had been seen by the public. Lately, I decided to give them a make over with my more experience eyes and added skills. The first one is from an etching and second one is from a silkscreen. I used paper cut to remake them and paper cut is a new skill I only doing in less than two years, both prints are 35 years old.
